| Summary |
"'How will global order unfold as we move into the next millennium?' With this basic question as a starting point, leading scholars in politics, economics, and international relations from 10 different countries have written 33 chapters specially commissioned for this new second edition of Political Economy and the Changing Global Order, which also includes introductory essays by the editors."--BOOK JACKET. "The book ranges widely, covering developments at global, regional, and national levels, key issues and trends, and the changing policies of major state actors, as well as presenting a broad spectrum of theoretical perspectives. Particular emphasis is given to the role of the state in the international political economy, the increasing importance of non-state actors, and the growing influence of both public and private forms of transnational governance."--BOOK JACKET |
